| Abstract: | In response to significant political, governmental, and socioeconomic changes affecting health care industry, health care organizations are forming a wide variety of loosely coupled interorganizational arrangements. These loosely coupled forms are classified according the extent to which they are designed to achieve strategic purposes. The quasi firm is defined as a special type of loosely coupled arrangements that may well facilitate more rapid and less risky entry - and exit - than would acquisition or internal expansion strategies. Mechanisms that are needed to ensure the continuity of quasi firms are explored, and an agenda for further research is given. |
